In most U.S. states, the crime of murder is punishable by death.
Even that penalty hasn't proven "good enough for people to start
paying attention" to the fact that murder is against the law.

Again, I ask: Since criminals are, by definition, people who don't
obey laws, how do you propose that *any* law is going to modify
their behavior?

It seems that you are now saying that laws have no use, since
criminals pay no attention anyway.
Are you advocating a free for all as the alternative? An eye for an
eye? Or sharia? Or what?

No, he said that laws do not deter CRIMINALS.

What laws are supposed to do is to deter a righteous citizen from
BECOMING a criminal.

Then there is no problem. Criminals are supposed to be punished,
rehabilitated or locked up.
